Windows 10: sound stopped working again

same thing as from my earlier thread - https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/sound-stops-on-headphones-when-pc-goes-to-sleep/1966d912-7244-4388-a1c2-50612232b732


not sure what to try now

Good surround sound headset

I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue
